Chapter Sixteen: Thinking Optimistically.
Dawn was sitting down on the couch with some freshly made popcorn. She was watching a movie called 'Lucario and the Mystery of Mew'. "I wish I lived in a Pokémon world," she said out loud, "then I would capture Lucario and make it use an aura sphere on Kenny!"
I haven't thought about him in a while… It's true. Since the whole thing with May, she had yet to think about him, until now. It has been a month and a half since they broke up. She looked at her cell phone which was placed on the light table near the couch.
"Maybe I should-" SLAM! "What the-" She shot up dropping the popcorn everywhere. "Ash, what are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be with-"
"Do not say her fucking name!"
Dawn was surprised at his tone. "Ash, what-"
"I don't want to fucking talk about it!" His eyes, they were red. Dawn figured he might have been crying, but she didn't understand. SLAM! He slammed the door of his room shut, which made her jump. What just happened? She stared at Ash's closed door. Did she… no~. Oh my God, I hope not.
Dawn sat down slouching forwards on the couch with her cheek placed on her fist. Should I go talk to him? Would it be rude not to? She looked at his door. Maybe he just needs his space right now. She got up, closed the TV, cleaned up the popcorn, and went to her room and lay down on her bed.
_._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._.
She looked at the alarm clock; it read 2:30am. Crap, I must have fallen asleep. She sat up and she heard a door close. "Ash?"
She threw the covers off of her and decided to check around. She walked around the place but there wasn't sight of him. She looked at his closed door. He probably went back to his room. She decided that now he might need someone to talk to so she walked to his room door and opened it carefully.
Ash was lying down facing the other side of the room. She sighed and walked up to his bed and got in with him. "Ash, please talk to me" … nothing. "Ash?"
"What is there to talk about?" He was still facing opposite of her. "Well, what happened yesterday?"
He wasn't answering and she was getting frustrated. "Ash, please, I'm trying to help you."
Ash finally turned around to face Dawn. "She cheated on me." He closed his eyes for a bit then resumed conversation. "It was so bad Dawn. She told him she was single. I was right there; do you know how much it hurt? I… I planned everything. I went through a lot to keep this girl. And… to have it all slapped into your face like that, I… I never felt my heart break that much. He asked her to be his and she said yes. There wasn't even a hesitate."
"Oh Ash." She got closer to hug him. She couldn't believe Misty was that type of person. She knew Misty had liked Ash for years. She changes her mind pretty quickly, but then again, Ash cheated on Misty as well. So I guess they're even, but, it seems her version of cheating was… worse. She let out a sigh.
"You okay?" Ash asked at the sigh.
Dawn let go of him. "Hmm? Yeah. This just sucks. I still can't wrap my head around the fact that she actually did this to you. This is Misty; she's liked you for years!"
Ash said nothing he just stared. A minute later he spoke, "You know what Dawn?" He let out a chuckle, "I never did feel those sparks."
Dawn looked at him curiously.
Ash lay on his back looking at the ceiling. "I guess, I did and still am kind of overreacting about this. I'm not even sure we would have lasted much longer. Even though I did fight for her and I really liked her, I never felt a romantic connection with her. I would like to have thought that tonight there would have been. But that's what I kept doing. I kept thinking 'today would be the day' but I'm kidding myself." Ash paused for a moment, "you know, now that I think about it… maybe it's a good thing that it's over. I would have kept kidding myself. Even if what Misty did was probably the harshest way to break up with someone."
Dawn looked at Ash with a shocked expression. He flipped emotions so fast, too fast, it kind of scared her. It felt to her as if he finished being depressed already. She was definitely surprised at how much emotional strength he had. He seemed to have thought this out.
"It's not like I didn't care about her, because I did, a lot. I just loved her like a sister, nothing more. I couldn't really do much about that."
"I guess you're right. Wow Ash, I'll come to you when I'm trying to think optimistically. I thought you would be in here all depressed for much longer."
Ash turned his head to face Dawn. "I just like to think optimistically. You can't possibly be happy being a pessimist all your life."
"I guess, but this is such a big deal, and you seem very nonchalant about it. If you keep acting like something this big doesn't affect you, people are going to start to think you're cold-hearted. That isn't a good quality. You have to know where to draw the limit from optimist to cold-hearted."
"I'm definitely not cold-hearted Dawn. But for this, I guess I just thought about it too much, and it made sense."
"I guess you're right. Well Ash, good luck with your next girlfriend, hopefully the relationship won't end so badly."
They shared a smile. Then Dawn yawned and started to close her eyes. "Goodnight Dawn," Ash said as he too closed his eyes and fell asleep.
